Santa Pur-suit 2026 is the 13th annual festive run in Kitchener Waterloo on November 21, 2026 at Weber Street South and Erb Street East (101 Frederick St, Kitchener, ON N2H 6R3). The event takes place on the parade route before the Kitchener Waterloo Santa Claus Parade.
Distances offered include:

All participants who register for a suit entry receive a full Santa suit consisting of a jacket, pants, hat, beard and belt. The full Santa suit must be worn during the event; participants not wearing the full suit will be removed from participation without refund. Participants are encouraged to keep their suit for future years to receive an entry fee discount.
Some entry categories include a finisher medal. There is a free stroller category called Future Runner (Elf in Stroller); strollers and passengers must be registered and must be accompanied and pushed by a participant in a different sub-event. Refunds are not available; deferral and transfer rules are outlined in the event waiver. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
